Jayson Tatum and his ex-Celtics teammate Marcus Morris were the stars in the final seconds of Friday night's Celtics-Knicks matchup.

First, Morris drilled the game-tying 3-pointer against his former team with 4.7 seconds left in the fourth quarter.

Then, Tatum responded with the game-winner with 1.7 seconds remaining and sent TD Garden into a frenzy.

What an ending.

After the game, Tatum told NBC Sports Boston's Abby Chin of his game-winner, "I wanted [Morris] to be guarding me."

Thanks to Tatum's clutch shot, the Celtics earned the 104-102 victory to improve to 4-1 on the season.
